differentFrom?

Hi,

Following on from the excellent Open Data and the Semantic Web meeting 
at the London Knowledge Labs yesterday (thank you, Open Knowledge 
Foundation), a thought occurs to me.  I don't imagine it's a new one, 
but I would be interested to know what has been done in this direction.

Hugh Glaser's sameAs.org site [1] provides a facility for finding 
multiple URIs for the same concept.  How about a site which does the 
opposite: indicates where URIs refer to _different_ concepts? 
Obviously, this is only helpful where you might be tempted to assume 
that the concepts are identical, e.g. because the same word or phrase is 
used to describe/identify both.

Wikipedia's disambiguation pages are doing this job for human readers: 
is there a Linked Data equivalent?
